Truman State University was named to the President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for 2013 in recognition of its efforts to help and provide community service.

The honor roll, compiled by the Corporation for National and Community Service, recognizes higher education institutions that reflect the values of exemplary community service and achieve meaningful outcomes in their communities.

This is the sixth consecutive year Truman has applied and been recognized on the honor roll since its creation in 2006.

Truman included events like The Big Event, the MLK Day of Service Collegiate Challenge and the Big Week of Giving as examples of its service on the application.
